Vivek (Srikanth) is an MD of an ad agency. He is a married
to a beautiful wife Sandhya (Sangeeta). Subbu (Venu) is a
photographer. He meets a beautiful girl (Rakshita). They fall
in love. Vivek has a friend called Samba (Sunil), who is into
womanizing and enjoying his life with hot chicks Sambha tries
to drag Vivek into the game and sends a prostitute Tilottama
to the guesthouse of Vivek when Sandhya is away. When Tilottama
arrives at Vivek's place, Sandhya returns to the guesthouse
for some urgent work. When Sandhya spots Tilottama in the
guesthouse, Vivek introduces her as the wife of Subbu.

Then
starts the comedy of errors. In order to cover a mistake that
has not really happened, three people play the game. One particular
lie by Vivek results into number of lies. What happens when
the wives come to know about their husbands lies forms the
climax.

Artists:

Srikanth:
: Srikanth has shown his finesse in comedy with 'Tappuchesi
Pappukoodu' in the past. He continued his form in this film
as well. He looks very handsome in this film.

Venu:
Venu has good timing sense. The scenes in which he takes out
kerchief to clean the shoes of Srikanth clicked very well.
Lets hope that he would get more films after this one.

Sangeeta:
She donned the role of ever-suspecting wife in this film who
makes the popular saying 'if something has to go wrong, it
will go wrong'. She is pretty glamorous.

Rakshita:
After having a hottest film like Idiot, the glam doll Rakshita
did not get enough role to entertain the crowds. But she managed
to evoke good response within the limitations.

Sunil:
Sunil has a role that acts as catalyst in this film. He is
the one who creates the problem and he is the one who solves
it. Though he has a small role, it is vital for the film.
He entertained the crowds.

Others:
Brahmanandam and Gundu Hanumantha Rao's roles did not have
enough time to entertain. But MS Narayana made a mark for
himself with an MLA role. The way he puts 'namaskar'
is quite funny.

Technical
Departments:

Story: The basic storyline is inspired by a Tamil film
titled 'Charlie Chaplin'. Writer Satyanand made a few changes
to add Telugu nativity to the story.

Screenplay
- Direction: After watching this film, everybody would
agree that it is not 'an SV Krishna Reddy film'. SV Krishna
Reddy has changed his style and composition. We see lot of
dialogue based humor and sentiment scenes in a SVK films.
But this film has very less dialogue humor and sentimental
touch. The film has comedy - that is generated by situation
- from the beginning to the end. It has clean comedy though
it deals with the storyline of hiring a prostitute. SV Krishna
Reddy has done a neat job and this film has all the chances
of becoming a comeback film for him.

Dialogues:
Dialogues by Marudhuri Raja are clean and well written. There
is one particular dialogue in the film for Sunil that goes
like - Vunnavi rende rendu satyalu. Okati puttadam. Rendodi
chaavadam. Ee madhyalo jariginadanta abaddam. I remember
Sunil telling me the same dialogue long back in a conversation.
I do not know if this dialogue is written by Sunil himself
as he is a good writer as well.

Music:
Music by Mani Sharma is very melodious. He mixed SV Krishna
Reddy style of music and his style of music and made a sensible
fusion out of it. Background music for comedy scenes is also
appropriate.

Other
departments: Photography of the film is very smooth. The
quality of film & printing is very good. Production values
of Siri Media Arts are of high standards. .

Analysis:
This film is a clean comedy film from first frame to last
frame. The main drawback of the film is lack of heavy sentimental
scenes, which is the forte of SV Krishna Reddy. For the first
time, SV Krishna Reddy came out of his regular group (of technicians)
and worked with all new (to him) technicians. Hence one can
see a lot of freshness in SV Krisna Reddy's taking. The producers
(Allu Arvind and Aswini Dutt) should be commended for hiring
the right cast and crew for the film. You can enjoy this film
as long as you don't have high expectations. This film is
aimed at family crowds and the range of the film would depend
on how much the family crowds like 'Pellam Voorelithe'.

Trade
Talk: This film has got positive talk on day one. But
the range might vary from 50 days to 70 days and 100 days
too in some centers. We have to wait and see how this film
fares in long run.
